PRODUCT USE INFORMATION
As a general rule, the taller a vehicle is, the easier it will roll. We strongly recommend, because of rollover possibility, that
seat belts and shoulder harnesses should be worn at all times. Avoid situations where a side rollover may occur.
Generally, braking performance and capability are decreased when larger/heavier tires and wheels are used. Take this
into consideration while driving. Do not add, alter, or fabricate any factory or after-market parts to increase vehicle height
over the intended height of the Rough Country product purchased. Mixing component brands is not recommended.
Rough Country makes no claims regarding lifting devices and excludes any and all implied claims. We will not be re-
sponsible for any product that is altered.
We will be happy to answer any questions concerning the design, function, and
correct use of our products by calling our toll free number @ 800-222-7023.
Prior to installation, carefully inspect the vehicle's steering and driveline systems paying close attention to the tie rod
ends, ball joints, and wheel bearing preload. Additionally check the steering to frame and suspension to frame attaching
points for stress cracks. The overall vehicle must be in excellent working condition. Repair or replace all warn or dam-
aged parts.
This kit is packaged as a leveling kit—raising the front 6” and the rear 4”.
On 2011 & 2012 models, the vehicle was equipped from the factory with a 4 1/2” diameter driveshaft at the u-
joint. As a stock un-lifted vehicle, this oversize shaft coupled with the lack of adequate clearance with the floor
pan from the factory, may cause the shaft to contact with the floor pan. This kit does not minimize the clearance
in this area but is usually recognized with the addition of larger tires and aggressive power-train torque both in
on road and off road situations. If contact does occur, modification of the floor pan may be needed to gain clear-
ance on the oversize driveshaft. This is accomplished by creating more space between the driveshaft and the
floor pan by manipulation of the body pan directly above and to the side of the u-joint on the driveshaft.
Due to differences in manufacturing, dimension and inflated measurements, tire and wheel combinations should be test
fit prior to installation. For this application we recommend a 17” or larger wheel not to exceed 8” in width with a minimum
backspacing of 4.5” to a maximum of 5”, a 9” wide wheel with 5” of backspacing is acceptable. Additionally a quality tire
of radial design is recommended, not exceeding 35” tall and 13.0” wide is recommended. Please note that use of a 35” x
12.5” tire may require modification to the front valance. . On some 2004-2007 models, not all 17” wheels will accommo-
date the larger brake calipers. Please check with the dealer for more information on fitment. On 2008 Models the use of
a 18” wheel or larger is mandatory due to the brake caliper size.
NOTICE TO DEALER AND VEHICLE OWNER
Install the supplied “Warning to Driver” decal installed on the inside of the windshield or on the vehicle’s dash. The decal
should act as a constant reminder for whoever is operating the vehicle of its unique handling characteristics.
We hope installing your Rough Country lift kit is a positive experience. Please note that variations in construc-
tion and assembly in the vehicle manufacturing process will virtually ensure that some parts may seem difficult
to install. Additionally, the current trend in manufacturing of vehicles results in a frame that is highly flexible
and may shift slightly on disassembly prior to installation. The use of pry bars and tapered punches for align-
ment is considered normal and usually does not indicate a faulty product. However, if you are uncertain about
some aspect of the installation process, please feel free to call our tech support department at 800-222-7023. We
do not recommend that you modify the Rough Country parts in any way as this will void any warranty ex-
pressed or implied.
